《身份漫遊》
(2016 / google圖片搜尋、兩寸證件照數張、網路截圖輸出紙本)
在真實世界中往往證件照比本人更具有代表性,藝術家運用Google圖片搜尋系統立即搜尋出這世界與藝術家最相似的頭像,再以最相似的頭像再度搜尋最相似的頭像,以此類推一百次,藝術家的臉孔開始旅行,歷經過各種人種、國家、動物,最後到達外太空火星上的臉孔,呈現出一種身在數據世界之中的當機滯留狀態,這些狀態反照了我們與網路數據互存的生活樣貌。
《Identity roaming 》
(2016/ Google photo search, 2 inch passport photos, digital output photos)
In everyday life passport photos often represent the identity of a person, the artist used google's photo search system to find a portrait most closely resembling his own passport photo, and uses that photo to find the next..etc. After repeating the process 151 times the artist's face has travelled through different race, countries, animals, ending on the photo of a face on Mars. This demonstrates a glitch in the daily digital life, serving as a reflection on our relationship with technology and digital data.
